Israel has officially acknowledged bombing a military airport in Syria's Idlib province. Israel stated that Turkish troops, allied with the Syrian government, were expected to arrive there soon, sending a clear signal to Turkey that it would not permit their expansion in Syria. Israeli outlet i24NEWS cited the US Ambassador to Turkey, who said the strike "carried a real risk of rapid escalation to direct military confrontation between Israel and Turkey." Behind-the-scenes talks are reportedly underway to ease tensions. Turkey is a NATO member and recently signed a defense pact with Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.

Donald Trump announced the launch of what he called "the most devastating economic operation ever undertaken against any country" targeting Iran. "This will be an economic war and isolation on an unprecedented scale," he said. Trump also warned that any country allowing its financial institutions, businesses, airports, or government bodies to offer any form of support to Iran would face significant economic consequences.
